Heat a gas or charcoal grill to high.
Combine radishes and cucumbers in a small bowl and dress with lime juice, rice wine vinegar, and 2 teaspoons fish sauce. Transfer to refrigerator until ready to serve.
In a small bowl, combine butter, shallots, garlic, ginger, chiles, lime zest, lime leaf, and remaining 1 tablespoon fish sauce. Mix until smooth and season to taste with additional fish sauce. Transfer 3 tablespoons compound butter to a small pot and melt over low heat. Set aside.
Divide remaining compound butter among lobster halves, spreading to coat tail meat. Transfer lobsters to grill, cover, and cook until tail meat is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, basting with melted butter mixture twice during cooking. Alternatively, broil lobsters, 8 to 14 minutes, until tail meat is cooked through. Cooking time will vary greatly on the strength of your broiler.
Just before serving, toss cucumbers and radishes with cilantro and mint. Transfer lobsters to serving plates and serve with lime wedges, any additional basting butter, and cucumber-radish salad.
